It’s time to talk about S&P 500 envy. Tech companies have become the largest companies in America and the S&P 500 is dominated by tech because we’re talking about a market-weighted average. Tech has benefitted the most from us being in lockdown for COVID-19. There are algorithms out there created by Facebook to keep us engaged. So that means there are algorithms that are basically driving up the S&P 500 because we’re all stuck at home during COVID-19. With the S&P looking so good, why should you diversify with international stocks for the long game? What about investing in healthcare and industrial companies? Plus, what’s going on with Biden’s tax plan? We’ll talk about that and more on today’s episode of New Focus on Wealth with Chad Burton.

Big episode today. Host Chad Burton is doing a deep dive review of Q3 and making some observations about what might be coming up in Q4. Plus…Why is the market up with all of the uncertainty? We’ll ask “Is tech too expensive?” with special guest Titania Hanrahan with BlackRock Technology Opportunities Fund. And of course, we can’t talk about our forecast for Q4 without forecasting what the market will look like under Democrats vs Republicans. A lot of that has to do with Biden’s proposed tax changes. Also, we’re going to review why asset allocation works but might feel disappointing. And finally, let’s talk about planning in a time of crisis by reviewing Roth IRAs and Roth conversions, tax loss harvesting, updating your trust now that “stretch IRA” is no more, and whether to refinance or restructure debt.

Chad opens up the Podcast with a brief analysis of various stocks, making note of a handful of large companies whose stock prices are currently down. Chad then goes on to address the impact of COVID-19. Chad notes the market has revealed harm to the travel and leisure industries, including places that are hurt by a lack of physical shoppers at store locations, while many other industries have been unaffected, or thrived during the pandemic.
He then goes on to discuss tax cuts from 2017, noting that retirees benefited greatly. Chad questions the longevity of these tax cuts after noting the direction of politics in the United States. Chad lists the possible election of Joe Biden as president and the push for affordable healthcare for all Americans as a reason to expect taxes to increase in the near future. He notes the need for planning for taxes and explains that technology has made investing easier than ever.
Next, Chad takes a deeper dive into planning for retirement, urging those approaching retirement to manage their risk. Chad notes the importance of staying clear and engaged in chasing your health and retirement goals. He places emphasis on staying on top of your heart leading up to and during retirement, noting that people that spend all of their new free time in retirement obtaining new investment behavior need to focus more on their overall health and continue to trust their long term financial planning and advisors.
Chad moves on to explain that most people will live longer than they expect to and urges people to plan for that. He encourages his clients to live until age 100, and not to retire until they can afford to live that long. Next, he takes on a question from an anonymous listener who has two forms of retirement savings and over $30,000 in debt. The listener asks Chad about what form of investments he should get into. Instead of instructing the listener on new investments, Chad urges him to get rid of his debt.
Chad brings the episode to an end with some final remarks about tax expectations in the future. He lists healthcare, social security, infrastructure, and others as the main reason we can expect raised taxes. Finally, Chad talks about the importance of finding a financial advisor that can do it all for you; a one-stop shop where you don’t feel the pressure of being sold something, rather a place where you can lay everything out and get a birds-eye view of what is currently happening in your financial life, and what could happen in different scenarios.

Second quarter expectations were pretty low due to covid uncertainties – why is the market doing so well when everything feels so awful?
Why is the market doing so well when everything feels so awful? 84% of S&P 500 companies have reported earnings so far and the good news is 60% have reported a positive revenue surprise after analysts downgraded their expectations. The bad? Compared to Q2 2019 we’ve declined by 35.7%, the largest year over earnings decline since 2008. Other topics:

Covid struggles appear to be ramping up again with more people either struggling to find work or keep their business afloat, while others must juggle homeschooling with working from home.

Risk on, risk off. The shortened week of trading was an interesting one to watch as the volatility we have seen this year is akin to Great Depression era. There is more confidence than warranted in this V-shaped recovery as we inch towards a coronavirus vaccine.

2020 has been a rollercoaster of a year, and it only starts with the pandemic. The S&P 500 was down 20% in Q1 and then Q2 up almost 20% in Q2.
It’s the last day of the second quarter and the S&P 500 is down only about 3% for the year despite the pandemic. This year has been nothing short of a roller coaster and it is reflected in the quarter-to-date returns. In terms of year-to-date returns, real estate is looking like one of the worst asset class to be in. Other topics include:

Somedays you wake up and you just don’t want to read the news. It’s hard to trust the media in a pay-per-click world where speculation and speed seems to be more important than factual reporting. For instance, six months ago, when covid was just starting to shut down the economy, all we had to do was wait 12-18 months for a vaccine, yet today the media is filled with stories on how covid is wreaking havoc on small businesses and causing a global recession.

The market has been driven by coronavirus and trade issues lately. Stocks trade based on future cash flow, so ignore the short term and invest for the long run.
Yesterday, White House trade advisor Peter Navarro made it sound like trade deal talks were over, then later claimed his words were taken out of context. Stock market futures proceeded to tumble more than 400 points, but as of this morning, futures are positive for the day. That’s how volatile these things can be. Everything eventually boils down to whether companies are selling more goods or services since stocks trade based on future cash flows. Ignore the short term and invest for the long run.

High real estate prices are apparently no match for low interest rates. Know this before settling on an intrafamily loan.
Real estate has been incredibly expensive for quite some time now and buyers are having trouble saving enough for a proper down payment. Still, there is an urgency for people to get into the house they want while interest rates hover around record lows. The result? There are a lot of intrafamily loans going on. Always be sure to consult a tax advisor and attorney before committing you and your family to this agreement. Other topics:

Are there benefits to owning cruise stocks if nobody is taking a trip on one? Covid is changing how we travel, and it’s taking retirement with it.
Willingness to reopen the economy hinges on your personal health and how covid has affected your life. No matter how quickly that happens, covid is going to change the way we travel. For instance, a cruise is the quintessential retirement vacation, but it may be that cruise ships never recover if we continue to practice social distancing. Today I look at the future of travel and everything that goes with it.

Civil unrest is surging across the nation and historically it hasn’t harmed the market. Rob takes over today to discuss what economic factors do bother him.
What Rob likes about sitting in for me is it makes him think in a big picture way instead of stories. Key economic indicators are weirdly inverted, which is usually a bad sign. Massive amounts of stimulus means markets are rallying higher than pre-covid times, but mounting civil unrest makes you wonder what is enough to derail us. So far, the answer is “No”. Today Rob talks about his biggest issue with the market and what we can do to get over it. Other topics include:

Many small business owners are closing their doors for good. What can the survivors do to stay afloat if we have a second or third Covid outbreak?
I always tell people, if you want to become a small business owner, you need to make 130% more than what you are making now. Self-employment tax, lack of 401k match and health insurance costs add up for the self-employed. Small business owners that get paid in cash, and didn’t report all of their cash income, ended up with fewer benefits under the CAREs act. Being self-employed is great... if you have a plan and know what you need to make to break even Other topics:

Everyone expects corporate REITs to take a dive, right? Here’s a logical argument where the demand for more office space actually increases.
Most real estate investment trust (REITs) are publicly traded stocks with a different tax structure requiring a higher income payout to investors. Some REITs looked expensive before COVID struck and now, with more people working from home, we are left wondering what will happen to office REITs. Will income drop? The gut reaction is to expect them to decline in value, but there is one argument that a greater demand could follow. Other topics:

Big moves up and big moves down. Some states are reopening and we are all hoping we can get back to some resemblance of normal.
Big moves up and big moves down. Get used to increased volatility in retirement. We flattened the curve. Now we are hearing more about vaccines and treatments and he market rallied in response, however, some are on the brink of financial disaster as they are still waiting for unemployment checks and a call back to work. Some small businesses and restaurants have closed for good. While taking caution, it’s time to get out there and get things moving again before we cause a depression. Other topics include:

Small business owners are weighing the effects of keeping the economy shut down vs. proceeding with caution. Though most people are getting their income by safely working from home, the Payroll Protection Program has failed to provide for the businesses currently lacking the income needed to stay afloat.

March was the craziest month we have experienced by far. Let’s review some of the things that have happened so far.
March was the wildest ride for the stock and bond market I have seen in the 25 years I have been in the business. Headlines range from anywhere between equity and small cap markets having the best weeks in decades to the rising number of people filing for unemployment. So what really happened in the market? Is it a tough place to thrive, are we crushing it or is it a bit of both? Topics:

The CARES Act is frustrating for even the brightest financial planners and CPAs’. Here are the issues we are dealing with right now
Today I dissect the largest fiscal rescue/stimulus package we have ever seen. Will it be enough? The CAREs Act includes financial rescue options for individuals and businesses. The options for small businesses can be very confusing. Can the SBA even handle the process? Eventually the stock market will bounce back and this will end up being a blank spot in the “timeline” of credit market; in terms of loan and mortgage payments. Today I discuss the issues that CFP®s, CPA’s and lawyers are trying to figure out. Topics include:

This quarter was the most volatile in my 25 year career. The S&P 500 jumped 5% from the beginning of the year to 2/19 then dropped -34% until the recent bottom on March 23rd at which point the market rebounded 15% by the end of March. The S&P 500 is down 20% since the start of the year and small and mid-cap stocks are down even further. The bond market also declined and had the most volatile ride I have ever seen until the feds put in a “backstop” on March 23rd. Listen and find out where I see value, how I am rebalancing and how I am tax loss harvesting. I also talk about the CARES Act and how it helps reduce taxes on RMDs for retirees and provides funding for small business.

Has the market already found the bottom? Nobody knows how bad this bear market will get. Find out what I’m doing.
Tuesday offered the biggest one day gain in the stock market since 1933 which is just more proof that the biggest up days occur during a bear market. This is another reason you should never try to time the market. Prior to these moves, many small and mid cap stocks had already fallen 75-85% as much as they did during the Great Recession.

Markets have reacted worse in the past, more precisely the ’07-’08 scenario where congress voted against a buyout before a market plunge that sent them scrambling. While today’s snapback rally won’t get you where you want to be, but it will give you the opportunity to sell some losers. The world is coming together to fight this virus and hopefully we have already hit rock bottom. Also:

You’ve heard my reasons why you should consider giving charities appreciated stocks or mutual funds over cash. If your tax situation has changed you may want to consider a Donor Advised Fund to get your tax deduction back.
Holiday feelings are among us and people are making the effort to give to those less fortunate. While cash is accepted by every charity, it may be in your best interest to gift appreciated stocks or mutual funds; this way you get a double tax benefit. you may be able to deduct the value you donated plus wipe out the future capital gain tax. Today I look at how this gifting strategy has affected people living in and out of California. Other topics:

Happy retirees don’t spend their days in the doctor’s office. Staying healthy and active before you retire is your best defense from a miserable retirement.
In my business you usually see two different types of retirees. Your first group is those that are busy, active, focus on their health and genuinely enjoy retirement. The other group misses working and attends doctor’s appointments. Today’s podcast starts off with a discussion on cellular health and staying healthy. Other topics:

A lot of retirees delay pulling money from their retirement accounts believing the tax hit is much worse than other options. This is not necessarily the case. Spending down your cash and taxable accounts often creates a rolling tax problem after RMD’s kick in. Create a Roth Conversion plan before year-end. Don’t wait on the IRS to make changes!

When you start to feel that things are the worst they have ever been is when you have to separate your investing moves from the fear-based media stories vying for your attention.

Managing your taxes is extremely important once you go beyond your 401k. Every year you need to be in the habit of actively harvesting losses if you have them. As long as you don’t buy back what you sold within 30 days, you can take that loss on your tax return. You also need to be aware of issues of inherited gains in mutual funds and ETF’s in your taxable account. Other topics include:

You’ve heard me talk about the huge outperformance of growth vs value investing since the great recession. Take time to review your portfolio and rebalance if needed.
Over the last few weeks you have heard me say that growth investing has had a historical run since the bottom of the market in 2009; handily outperforming value investing. This is your cue to do a portfolio review to try and figure out if you are investing areas that have run too far. Good value investors are very patient and realize that long term pay offs matter more than short term market movements. Other topics include:

As the world we live in becomes increasingly more digital, estate planning takes on a whole new face with more and more things being stored online. Family photos are stored on the cloud, social media accounts stay active well after someone dies and important scanned documents may be difficult for the surviving family members to find. Next time you review your estate plan make sure your digital life is covered and not just your physical one.

The valuation gap between expensive and cheap stocks is the lowest it has been in 9 years. Why is value being ignored while growth gets expensive?
Looking for stocks that are trading at a discount is called value investing. Traditionally this is done by looking at the P/E ratio and right now the valuation gap between expensive and cheap stocks is the lowest it has been in 9 years. Now that investors are turning their attention to quality stocks, value investing is something you should be keeping your eye on as periods of underperformance are followed by periods of outperformance.
